Our Primary 6 Holiday Programme

It’s been five years since your child first began their primary school education. Now there’s one last year to go before taking on the PSLE: the first major exam of their lives. The year ahead will be more rushed than usual, as teachers will do their best to wrap up the Primary 6 syllabus much earlier than other levels in order to devote more time for revision. Even so, gaining a fundamental understanding of each subject’s topics is still crucial for success, so your child will need to strike a fair balance between actual learning and revision time.

With the help of this programme, we are going to help your child get a headstart on mastering some important topics, so that they will have an easier time when they finally return to school next year.

Our Primary 6 Holiday Programme will span four days from 10 AM to 5 PM, with students beginning each day with a fun workshop session related to the subject of the day. Lunch will be provided for all students*, after which the second half of the day will proceed with a lesson for the day’s featured subject.

Facilitated by a team of up to five teachers, these lessons will focus on experiential and collaborative learning where students are given the chance to participate in hands-on and teamwork-oriented activities. The topics that your child will be learning in our programme will pique their interest and give them a solid headstart when they return to school after the holidays.

*Please note that any dietary requirements can be specified in the Eventbrite signup form.
